Christmas Reading

[Pauline]

I don't know about you, but while I'm off work for a couple of weeks I'm really going to enjoy catching up on some light reading and I will almost certainly reread some Enid Blytons. (How I do WISH that somebody could somehow present to me a great, fat genuine EB Malory Towers and/or St Clare's book, but, alas, that's not going to happen). However, I have ordered a couple of previously unread Jennings books and also couple of unread Ruby Ferguson Jill books from Amazon. That's something to look forward to.

Is anybody else planning some Christmas reading?

Not exactly Christmas reading, but I am off on the sick with a cold at the moment and there is a tradition of reading Rat-A-Tat Mystery whenever I'm down with a flu or a cold and have to stay at home.

I'm thinking of re-reading Enid's The Christmas Book in the lead-up to Christmas.

I believe I will just have to continue what I am reading at the moment until I start a new book. But some Blyton re-reading is something I am certainly going to do during the holidays. And I have asked for two special books for Christmas so I am very excited!

I'm currently reading one story from 'Christmas Tales' every night, and thoroughly enjoying them. There are 25 stories, so I started reading the first one on 30th November, so I can read the last one on Christmas Eve.



Normally I avoid newly produced Blyton books like the plague, but its great to have so many of her Christmas stories gathered together in one volume.

I'm also reading 'Secret of Spiggy Holes. It used to be my favourite EB book as a child, but although I still like it, it's slipped a good way down the list these days!
